New & Lingwood’s SS17 collection is their most striking yet
Semi-canvassed and softly-structured, this is the pinnacle of summer tailoring
Words: Gentleman's Journal
Cocktails by the pool. Summer evening soirees. Vintage style. If any of these ideas appeal to you, head down to St James’s as soon as you can – for New & Lingwood’s SS17 collection epitomises them all.
Throughout their 150-year history, the brand has never shied away from innovation – and their latest range once again manages to recall styles of the past whilst looking to the future with fabric combinations and colours never before seen.
Evoking a feel of Hollywood glamour – albeit in a Riveria setting – the new range includes a wide assortment of semi-canvassed and softly-structured tailoring. Perfect for the tricky transition from summer day to summer night, New & Lingwood are offering everything from sharp suiting in classic colours to nouveau jackets and trousers in vibrant, bold hues from raspberry and mustard to sky blue and burgundy.
And, underpinning the suave and striking tailoring the British brand is known for, comes supplementary pieces in sumptuous silk and merino knitwear. The classic raincoat is given a sharp twist on the traditional design with its contrast-coloured lining, tailored in the best double-faced, water-resistant Italian cotton, and available in four stunning combinations – navy, royal blue, lime and orange.
In terms of accessories, New & Lingwood’s SS17 hand-crafted shoe collection sees new colours added to the signature Butterfly Loafer (olive and navy suede and acorn calf), A wonderfully comfortable crepe-soled Chukka boot in four colours and the re-introduction of the bestselling Classic Sneaker in five new colours and the addition of suede – ensuring that you look the part from top to toe.
“This collection is one of our most comprehensive and offers gentlemen a breadth of elegant single and double-breasted tailoring,” says Product and Marketing Director, Simon Maloney. “Bold designs and richly coloured and patterned silk accessories and opulent offer of exclusive silk dressing gowns.
“This season’s striking and more adventurous pieces can be perfectly partnered with the more subtle elements of the collection,” he continues, “guaranteeing that the discerning gentleman can achieve either a sharp, classic look or one of the bold eclecticism that embodies New & Lingwood’s defining style.”
